(needed if the hierarchy has to follow the order of the index of that forum, what I see as to be very important to find the topics easily and write the wiki pages and actualize them following the content of sometimes very long forum discussions where the forum discussions has the advantage to clarify all details and changes month after month)

- I find news, distros, stuff, blog and next also very important in the life of a community and it would be good to resume the objectives and movements in compact form in adequate wiki pages instead to need to have to read never ending discussion if you will get an overview about a topic.

it seems that both wikis as installed have not yet the internal translation's follow up being installed in some other dokuwiki's I know

(all pages have in all languages the same name excepted the 2 letters language code as showed above. the first name entry is the mother version independent in witch language this happens and as often this mother version will be changed, the fact of opening a translated version without the needed actualization starts a warning message requiring an actualization of the translation! I find this simple system wonderful!).

Old Dokuwikis did need an extra installation of both, writing colors, and include function, to be able to use them, with the translation's management 3 extra functions also if the are not included automatic in the new Dokuwikis (I don't know it).

Will look into this suggestion, oui, hopefully by next week, as am terribly busy now.

darkcity, pupweb.org/wikka has this in the header:
"This is the old puppylinux wikka wiki. The new one is at puppylinux.org/wikka"
Perhaps it is now time to close pupweb.org/wikka , as these has been sufficient time to migrate the contents to puppylinux.org/wikka ?_________________Puppy user since Oct 2004. Want FreeOffice? Get the sfs (English only).

This has not been done. I just moved the major pages as needed right at the beginning.
You could however provide a period of several months. If old wiki material is not moved, then we can assume no one wants it sufficiently.

A notice to that effect on the front of the old wiki would provide notice of this intention.

I can help shifting the information over to the new wikka. I suggest adding a Category to the old wiki CategoryMigratedToNewWiki . Then when information has been moved to the old wiki page can be tagged.

This would allow an easy way to check the progress of page transfer. I will need login to the old wiki add the category tag.

The current wiki has a few flaws-

-Language support

-Inconsistent style

-Many pages missing explanation of subject, going straight into a technical how to.

I have an idea for language support, but I need to find code that can access and modified the current URL address._________________helping Wiki for help | IF SendSpace link = "dead" THEN PM me ("up file to http://meownplanet.net/")

That is fine and very welcome

- camelcase is not needed on the new wiki
so names can be changed if clearer.

Some pages/projects are no longer relevant or need no place
- so not everything is required.

The code is practically the same - only URLS now have to be
like so [[http://www.puppylinux.org/news/ NEWS]]
http://www.puppylinux.org/news/
is not automatically a link

from another language; minus the appended then add language code or none if english

if the page didn' t exist the wiki would prompt user to create it.

this way you can synchronize different language and make it obvious where language pages are missing.

Perhaps it should be placed on the page only when the translation is already available, because when a non-registered user clicks on a non-existent page, s/he will be instructed to register (and create that page). This has been confounding a lot of unregistered users.

Linking to a page in wikkawiki is automatic, so you can just write

PuppyVersionFr

or

PuppyVersionfr

and the link to that new page will be inserted automatically by wikkawiki (Note that using a punctuation like - or . does not help)._________________Puppy user since Oct 2004. Want FreeOffice? Get the sfs (English only).
